The last edition of the International Workshop on Planning and Scheduling for Space (IWPSS) has been held in Toulouse, France, on April 28-30, 2025, chaired by Christian Artigues (LAAS-CNRS), Jean Jaubert (CNES), Cédric Pralet (ONERA - The French Aerospace Lab), and Steve Chien (NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory).
IWPSS focuses on the challenges and opportunities facing the planning and scheduling community when addressing the needs of a wide range of space-based applications. We invite submissions on a wide range of topic areas relating to space and planning and scheduling (broadly interpreted) including: techniques and algorithms, applications to space or aerospace, planning, scheduling execution, knowledge acquisition for planning & scheduling systems, embedded planning, scheduling, and execution systems, validation of planning and execution systems, and other general topic areas relating to planning & scheduling for space.
ONERA has presented several co-authored papers on planning and scheduling for Space applications:
